Est-il envisagé une mise à jour pour utilisation sous Lion ?
Merci pour votre réponse.

I know... and it's driving me up the wall! Definitely one of the very few caveats I have about Apple design...

I love simple tools that just do one thing well. This and Caffeine are my favourites in this category. I can now turn on or restart my MacBook without embarrassment in a meeting.

Took me a little time to realize that this app is an add-in to the System Preferences - Other.

Great program and free too.

Just installed 1.1b3 version on iMac running
Snow Leopard 10.6.7. Works great, but as in Jediah's review had to restart once and put the slider on minimum and selected mute just to make sure.

This sounds like exactly what I'm looking for, so I downloaded and installed it. When I clicked on it in the Preferences pane, it showed me the following message:

'You can’t open Startup Sound preferences because it doesn’t work on an Intel-based Mac.'

Disappointing.
